Finality
[My camera took a blurry picture of me, and then the kids came busting into the kitchen for their lunch, so I didn't have time to get a clear picture, but here's my belly today. I'm sure those gym people are like, "When is this lady going to deliver?" Well, I'm asking the same question, people!]
I'm feeling the tug of the final days of this pregnancy. It's pulling me into the finality phase, where every time I leave a room, it must be clean (just in case), and everyday I must cross off the things on my to-do list because you never know when it's your time to go...to the hospital, in this case.
For example, right after getting out of the van and unloading the groceries, I had to vacuum out the cookie crumbs in the back seat that, moments earlier, were still in-tact cookies held in kid's hands, waiting to be eaten.
Along with this, the absentee ballots have been sent in, the Fun Friday craft night has been completely delegated out to the respective participants (I will be hopefully caressing a baby while that's taking place this Friday), the baby's clothes have been put away in the last bits of drawer space we could find, the serious crafting mess of last week has been cleaned up, and even my recipe book has been organized and cleaned out. We're in the final countdown, ladies and gents. Let's hope it's a smooth landing!
I also wanted to show you what I finished last night....for a special gal, going all the way to Beijing, China!
And, what's with the funky numbers, you ask?
Centimeters!
Chinese measure height in centimeters, I learned.

I'm sure Ashley will love your creation. It's darling!
And you, my dear, you win an award for still going to the gym! I'm sure this delivery will be a breeze because of all your hard work! You look great too!
it turned out really cute! Love the background choice. Good luck over the next couple of days and let me know if there's anything I can do to help. I'm looking forward to Fun Friday and appreciate all you've done to make it successful.
